“Into the Woods”
The scent of the Adirondack Mountains—rich and refreshing. Dominated by crisp pine, layered with subtle notes of leafy birch and maple, and softened by the distant aroma of a campfire drifting through the air. Hints of fresh earth rise from the forest floor, while a cool, menthol-like breeze rolls in from the lake.
Fragrance notes include Pine, Maple Wood Smoke, Sweet Birch, Siam Wood, with undertones of Grass, Juniper, Sea Moss, and a touch of Honey.
Van Yulay has crafted a luxurious shaving soap enriched with Kokum and Cocoa butters, delivering an exceptional, indulgent shaving experience. Infused with high-quality Kaolin clay, it provides superior glide for an ultra-smooth, BBS shave.

We make each soap with your skin in mind. Ph balanced to have a smooth and irritation free shave. Each soap is piped in beautifully in an 8 oz. container.
How to use:
Soak your shave brush with hot water for a few minutes before your shave. Apply a warm, damp towel to your face (or splash face with warm water) for prep and apply another hot towel to your face for a few seconds. After the brush has soaked, gently squeeze out excess water. Apply the soap to the brush in fast, circular motions to coat the bristles well. Shave and rinse face thoroughly with cool water.
For an optimal experience, finish with Van Yulay’s After Shave Splash followed by an After-Shave Balm by Van Yulay.
Shaving Soap Contents:
- Tallow – has been used as an effective skincare ingredient for centuries! As your skin need all vitamins to replenish the daily lives, tallow has Vitamin A, D, E and K, as well as Omega – fatty acids.
- Emu Oil – contains high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, therefore it is able to easily penetrate the skin’s barriers for deep moisturization. When compared to other types of oil, emu oil had 2-4 times greater penetration of the skin. These effects show that emu oil is able to moisturize and rejuvenate the skin extremely effectively.
- Silk Amino Acids – This silk forms a natural layer over the skin, keeping moisture locked in and harsh conditions out, leaving skin protected and well-nourished.
- Babassu Oil is an antioxidant and will help destroy the free radicals that cause premature aging and cancer. The oil is naturally anti-inflammatory and is often used to treat skin conditions such as eczema.
- Coconut Fatty Acid – excellent lathering and conditioning when used in shave soap.
- Bentonite Clay – Gives an extra creaminess and silkiness to the shave soap. Generally, white clay’s natural absorbing, detoxifying and exfoliating properties makes it an indispensable ingredient in shaving products.

Into the Woods combines Pine, smoke, wood, moss, grass and menthol to create to my nose a very distinctly masculine cologne-ish scent. It would make a lovely aftershave or cologne.
Performance of the soap is outstanding, which is a standard feature of Van Yulay soaps.
If you are looking for a Pney, woody, mossy type fragrance, Into the Woods delivers.
Good stuff!
